Here on The Equivalent Exchange, we believe whole heartedly in the ideas and philosophies of the world and human mind. Our goal is to leave you with thoughts to ponder and growth to partake in.

Teachings that do not speak of pain have no meaning, because humankind cannot gain something without first giving something in return. In alchemy, to obtain something, something of equal value must be lost—this is equivalent exchange. Join hosts Ellen, Kassem, and Kayla as we read through Fullmetal Alchemist by Hiromu Arakawa chapter by chapter, exploring every twist, turn, explosion, transmutation-gone-awry, and moment of connection (and hubris) the series has to offer. Fans old and new wil ...

(thumbnail courtesy of Don East) Yep, it's a shorter mid-convention show here, going up while Anime NYC is in progress in... well, New York, duh. We'll be back next time with a fuller show talking all of those wild convention hijinks, but for now we've got some very interesting developments with Weekly Shonen Jump, in the return of a legendary titl…

First, yes, this show is very late. Blame a long work weekend and a few days dealing with COVID (remember that? it's still around) for this show being later than it should have been. But we have plenty of happenings and goings-ons from Anime NYC to talk about, along with the winner of the Look Back sweepstakes, a major deal for One Piece in the UK,…

Send us a text Can you believe we’ve done 100 episodes now? Can you believe we’re almost done with the series?? FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST chapter 100 hits us hard, with two deaths, a serious injury, and … whatever that is that’s happened to Hoenheim. The eclipse is almost here, and the human sacrifice candidates are being gathered; can they turn the tabl…

What does it mean to be an adult? How did you know you became one? What kind of changes has adulting impacted in your life? Join us as we have our man in the chair for the first time (Charles)! We talk about all things adulting and how we all have come into it in our own way while giving perspective on what it means to be/become an adult.…

In MemoriamRachael Lillis1978-2024 So, a lot has happened in the month since our last episode. Some good, some bad, some downright insane, and not everything involved someone who may or may not have had coitus with a couch like a total weirdo. But we're back, we're easing through things for the time being, and we're running through the big details …

And here we are, running down the major bits and pieces from Anime Expo once again, all while the industry is threatened more now than ever in recent memory of suffering from a bursting bubble. It's best to enjoy things while we still can, but that does include plenty of upcoming projects like... more Fire Force and Blue Exorcist... but there's mor…

It's the last stop before Anime Expo, and with it comes a smaller platter of stuff to talk about, but a platter nonetheless - and since that Urusei Yatsura anime revival worked so well, why don't we do it again with Ranma 1/2? It'll be... something, that's for sure. There's also a not-so-great update on the recent business dealings of Kadokawa, HiD…

Yes, this episode is very late. Life sometimes gets in the way of getting this show done. Nevertheless, there's quite a bit to talk about as we are in the "pre-Anime Expo" buildup, namely some big moves from Science SARU and GKIDS, a good amount of manga and light novel synopsis reading, a deep dive on Netflix's anime data, and the (hopefully) perm…

Send us a text As the fight continues in FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST chapter 94, we have questions: Why has broadcast media seemingly advanced more in Reole than other cities? How has the Amestrian military flunked Controlling the Media Narrative 101? And more importantly, what can Mustang stand to learn from, of all people, Scar? As Tim and Patrick look f…

Well, then. After taking an unexpected month-long break from this show, we are FINALLY back and we are FINALLY whole again with Andrew back in the saddle to give all of the shenanigans that have been sorely missed in his absence. This includes running down the spring dub casts (finally) and reading some cringy light novel summaries, and it also inc…

Send us a text It’s another chapter with several simultaneous fights! Marcoh’s life is saved, hilariously, from Pride’s spike; the Armstrongs continue to battle Sloth; and Mustang demands to know who killed Hughes. Also, what was the crazy chapter title in the original Japanese? Tim and Patrick discuss the emotional roller coaster of FULLMETAL ALCH…

Since our last episode, Cody Rhodes "finished the story" at WrestleMania to become the undisputed WWE Champion, and that's good. Sadly, also since our last episode, the overlords at MAPPA decided to finish another story by axing a long-awaited movie project after years of nothing, and that's bad. Things aren't fun, right now, and with that comes a …

As of this episode going up, we’re in the middle of WrestleMania weekend, and that means many things to many people, and it means hoping that a certain someone finally “finishes his story” on Sunday so that we can all be done hearing about it. But for us, the grind continues as we put a bow on the winter season and lament the continued cannibalism …

Send us a text Soldiers do return in FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST chapter 89 - a number of soldier characters that we haven’t seen in quite some time! As Mustang’s gang and the troops from Briggs begin their attack, we see what good leadership can do - an advantage that the homunculi definitely DON’T have. But will leadership be enough?

No jokes, no hyperbole, nothing over-exaggerated - this "awards show" needs to go away and never come back. The corporate overlords at Crunchyroll can put together all of the window dressing they want, but if these events are going to continue awarding themselves and ignoring what the people at AniTrendz and Anime Corner and r/anime put the time an…

As we inch closer and closer out of the winter doldrums, we find more and more cases of rabid internet discourse popping up and it just makes us ask one thing: whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. We don't like talking about these things, but alas, it is our duty to discuss certain elements of discussion with these topics, namely the topic of what NOT to do when you…

Send us a text Al’s armor has been taken over by Pride! Can Ed, Lin, and the chimeras defeat him? And how was Pride able to locate them?

HEADS UP: some of the audio is a little crunchy. Weird things happened with some of the recording. We’ll try to not let that happen next time. The sluggish days of winter are here and we're all feeling it around here. We're all a bit tired and we're still trying to wade through our shifting schedules, so pardon any additional dust around here as we…

Welcome to 2024 and welcome to a new year of this stilly dog-and-pony show we do every so often. We're back in a big way, basically putting together two whole shows in one, recounting the fall season and 2023 as a whole while looking forward to "award season" in one certain aspect and going through the latest pants-filling announcements from Discot…

Send us a text In FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST chapter 83, Ed makes a surprising ally, the Armstrongs battle each other, and other characters play a clandestine game of “telephone.” Tim and Patrick are joined by CBR.com writer Louis Kemner to discuss the chapter, as well as transliteration of foreign names in katakana, Japanese dog breeds, and… what happene…

As 2023 comes to an end, you all may have varying feelings about the year as a whole. For some it was good, for others it was bad, and for the rest it was just very... meh. But we hope to leave the year for all of you on a better note, namely with about two and a half hours of anime discussion to listen to while you're all doing things during your …

Send us a text FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST chapter 82 is one of the funniest in a while! But it has serious moments, as well, as Al catches up with his long-missing dad, and Lin/Greed makes an irreversable decision. Also, Tim and Patrick come across a deja vu scene - didn’t the same thing happen earlier in the series?…

After a long Thanksgiving weekend, the grind continues onward - if only for one more week as Anime NYC was quite the event to look back on as opposed to the litany of terrible news we have to go through on this episode. We're all really just limping to the end of the year, in a way. But we carry on, if only for our own sense of self-worth and in ho…

Happy Black Friday and/or Small Business Saturday and/or Cyber Monday - the best time of the year for reckless spending on random stuff nobody really needs but the deals are just way too good to pass up - and to help bide the time while you're out shopping (or endlessly browsing Amazon) here's a very long best-of compilation of our past "Discotek D…

Send us a text In chapter 80 of FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST, Ed is still nowhere to be seen, but finally the other characters are starting to notice that fact, so surely it won’t be long till his return!

November is here, the fall season is in full swing, and things have been pretty quiet for a bit all over the place, which means it's the right time for someone to screw up in spectacular fashion.

Well THIS sure became a meaty show, didn't it? Between the offerings and goings-on at New York Comic Con, Crunchyroll doing a bit of good and QUITE a bit of bad (you all know what it is), and another fantastic Discotek Day event happening, there's quite a lot to get to in this show. There's also a neat rundown of the dub cast for The Boy and the He…

For this go-around, we've got a little bit of everything for everyone here - big announcements, business news, recapping a MID season, terrible bullcrap nobody likes, hilarious overreactions from light novel and manga announcements, and even a terrible correction to what we thought was something cool from the last show, only to find out it was all …
